Republican leaders are now beginning to leave the Tump train over his racist remarks and the use of the race card to obtain the Presidency.Today, Lindsay Graham, Mark Kirk, vowed not to support him, and just a few minutes ago an Iowa State Senator declared he is leaving the Republican Party, because of Trump and his racism. Clearly more will follow, as this was quite predictable and has legs going forward.

Kiss the Presidency Goodbye Repubs, and more than likely the Senate as well. The race card and racial dog whistles work in primaries dominated by conservative repubs, but no longer in a general election.

Thanks go to "The Donald", for handing the Dems the Presidency on a silver platter, to a beatable Hillary Clinton.

Where's the "News"? These jokers have been against Trump from day 1. Despite this, Trump won more votes, despite having 16 competitors, than any GOP candidate in history.


The fact that Trump doesn't pander to these professional politicians is what draws people to him. It's why he will win the election.

News flash the republican primary is OVER. He's running in a more diverse and moderate general election field now, against a more knowledgeable,experienced, well funded opponent, and is going to get creamed, except for the deep south and a handful of western states. The electoral college is a nightmare for him but if you want to stay in the "bubble" fine with me.

Well she can't point to her record on foreign policy.

She can't point to her scams and corruption the last 25 years.

She can't point to her 0 accomplishments for minorities in Washington.

So, we will see

Even if he were to win the election, he'll need the support of Congress if he hopes to get anything done. At the rate he's pissing them off, Republicans are likely to unite with Democrats just so they don't have to associate with him.

Is this "fuzzy" math where the reality is distorted? You do realize that Trump got the required amount of delegates for the nomination, right?

No, I don't think he is running against Bernie, they say that Hillary basically has the nomination, you know the corrupt, above the law, on her death bed Hillary.
